Operation of Screw - type Water - cooled Chiller Units
2025-02-12
Starting Steps of Screw - type Chiller Units
- Check the power supply of the unit to ensure it is stable and up to standard.
- Open the inlet/outlet valves of the chilled water.
- Start the chilled water circulation pump and check whether the operating voltage and current are normal.
- Open the inlet/outlet valves of the cooling water.
- Start the cooling water circulation pump and check whether the operating voltage and current are normal.
- Check whether the inlet/outlet pressure difference of the chilled water is normal.
- Check whether the inlet/outlet pressure difference of the cooling water is normal.
- Confirm that the chilled/cooling water systems are circulating normally.
- Start the unit and wait until the unit operates stably.
- Check the operating voltage and current of the unit.
- Check the inlet/outlet water temperatures of the evaporator/condenser.
- Check the refrigerant pressures of the evaporator/condenser.
- Check whether the operating sound of the unit is normal.
- Decide whether to start the cooling tower according to the inlet water temperature of the condenser.
